“Perched above Lyon, this magnificent 4* hotel in a 19th-century convent brilliantly blends historic structure with contemporary art and design. Set in a park, it’s away from the hubbub yet close to the Roman sites and Vieux Lyon. More plus points - two fine restaurants, a pool, and an excellent spa.”

Fourvière Hôtel Lyon, Rhône-Alpes, France

Few hotels fuse hardcore historic architecture with contemporary art quite like this four-star hotel, at home in a 19th-century convent above the city of Lyon on Fourvière hill. All-white designer rooms evoke Le Corbusier; views are swoon-worthy and modern French dining is superb.
